Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Anordnung mit zwei gegeneinander ver- und einstellbaren Arbeitsplatten zum Tragen von Datenverarbeitungsgeräten, insbesondere von Bildschirm und Tastatur, wobei eine der Arbeitsplatten an einem Fußgestell höhen- oder bzw. und neigungseinstellbar gelagert ist.The invention relates to an arrangement with two mutually adjustable and adjustable worktops for carrying data processing devices, in particular screen and keyboard, one of the worktops being mounted on a base frame so as to be adjustable or adjustable in height.

Im Bereich der Datenverarbeitung ist die optimale Anpassung von Arbeitsplattenhöhen und -neigungen vielfach erforderlich. Meist ist eine zweifache und getrennt einstellbare Plattenhöhe pro Tisch erforderlich, z.B. Bildschirm einerseits und Tastatur anderseits. In diesem Falle werden üblicherweise in einem Fußgestell zwei Höhenverstellmechanismen vorgesehen. Diese Lösung ist jedoch relativ teuer, da sie im Prinzip zwei Gestellen gleichkommt. Die Erfindung stellt sich die Aufgabe, mit nur einer Gestellkonstruktion auszukommen.In the field of data processing, the optimal adjustment of worktop heights and inclinations is often necessary. Usually a double and separately adjustable plate height is required per table, e.g. Screen on the one hand and keyboard on the other. In this case, two height adjustment mechanisms are usually provided in a base frame. However, this solution is relatively expensive, since it is basically the same as two racks. The object of the invention is to manage with only one frame construction.

Erfindungsgemäß erfolgt die Lösung dieser Aufgabe dadurch, daß an dieser einen Arbeitsplatte bzw. deren Fußgestell mittels mindestens eines Lenkers die andere Arbeitsplatte ebenfalls höhen- oder bzw. und neigungseinstellbar gelagert ist. Nach dem Wesen der Erfindung ist also vorgesehen, daß die zweite höhen- bzw. neigungseinstellbare Platte nur mehr entweder an der ersten Platte oder an der Fußgestellkonstruktion derselben befestigt wird. Die gleiche technische Lösung ist auch bei getrennt höhen- bzw. neigungseinstellbaren Plattenausschnitten innerhalb eines Tisches oder dgl. für Maschinenstandflächen, wie von Schreibmaschinen etc., verwendbar.According to the invention, this object is achieved in that on this one worktop or its base by means of at least one handlebar, the other worktop is also height-adjustable and / or tilt-adjustable. According to the essence of the invention, it is therefore provided that the second plate, which can be adjusted in height or inclination, is only attached either to the first plate or to the base structure thereof. The same technical solution can also be used in the case of plate cut-outs which can be adjusted separately in height or inclination within a table or the like for machine base areas, such as typewriters, etc.

Vorteilhafterweise ist dabei vorgesehen, daß zur Höhenein- und -verstellung am Lenker eine Schraubspindel vorgesehen ist. Eine solche Schraubspindel, deren Mutter im Lenker geführt ist und deren oberes Ende an der zweiten Arbeitsplatte drehbar gelagert ist, ermöglicht die stufenlose Höheneinstellung der zweiten Arbeitsplatte.It is advantageously provided that a screw spindle is provided on the handlebar for height adjustment and adjustment. Such a screw spindle, the nut of which is guided in the handlebar and the upper end of which is rotatably mounted on the second worktop, enables stepless height adjustment of the second worktop.

Die Ausbildung des Lenkers selbst besteht nach weiteren Merkmalen der Erfindung darin, daß der Lenker einarmig ausgebildet ist, oder darin, daß der Lenker als U-Bügel ausgebildet ist, oder darin, daß der Lenker aus zwei miteinander torsionssteif verbundenen, parallelen Lenkern besteht.The design of the handlebar itself according to further features of the invention is that the handlebar is formed with one arm, or that the handlebar is designed as a U-bracket, or that the handlebar consists of two parallel links rigid torsionally connected.

Zusätzlich kann vorgesehen sein, daß die zweite Arbeitsplatte am Lenker in ihrer Neigung verstell- und festlegbar gelagert ist, z.B. durch Klemmschrauben.In addition, it can be provided that the inclination of the second worktop on the handlebars is adjustable and fixable, e.g. by clamping screws.

Im Rahmen der Erfindung sind an dieser Grundausbildung noch weitere Ausgestaltungen möglich; Einzelheiten und weitere Vorteile derselben ergeben sich aus der folgenden Beschreibung, in der einige Ausführungsbeispiele der erfindungsgemäßen Anordnung anhand der Zeichnungen erläutert sind; es zeigen:

  • Fig. l eine Draufsicht auf eine erste Anordnung mit einer großen und einer kleinen Arbeitsplatte,

Within the scope of the invention, further configurations are possible on this basic training; Details and further advantages of the same result from the following description, in which some exemplary embodiments of the arrangement according to the invention are explained with reference to the drawings; show it:
  • 1 is a plan view of a first arrangement with a large and a small worktop,
  • F ig. 2 an associated vertical section along the line 2-2 of FIG. 1, the
  • 3, 4 corresponding representations of a second arrangement with two equally wide worktops,
  • Fig. 5 is a plan view of a special handlebar for the second worktop in a third arrangement, the
  • 6-10 side views of further embodiments according to the invention, the
  • Fig. 11, the top view belonging to Fig. 10, and
  • F ig. 12, 13 and 14, 15 side views and top views of two last versions.

Bei der Ausführung nach den Fig. l und 2 ist ein Fußgestell vorgesehen, in dessen vertikalem Ständer 2 höheneinstell- und verstellbar eine erste Arbeitsplatte 3,}z.B. für ein Bildschirmgerät /nicht dargestellt) gelagert ist. Die Höheneinstellung erfolgt dabei durch an sich bekannte Einrichtungen, die nicht Gegenstand der Erfindung sind. Diese erste Arbeitsplatte 3 ist an ihrer Unterseite mit einem Lenker 4 versehen, der einenends um eine horizontale Achse in einem Schwenkgelenk 5 an der Platte 3 gelagert ist und andernends die zweite Arbeitsplatte 6, z.B. für eine (ebenfalls nicht dargestellte) Tastatur, trägt, u.zw. ebenfalls um eine horizontale Welle 7 schwenkbar und in ihrer Neigung zur Horizontalebene durch bekannte (nicht dargestellte) Mittel festlegbar, z.B. durch Klemm- oder Fixierschrauben.In the embodiment according to FIGS. 1 and 2, a base frame is provided, in the vertical stand 2 of which a first worktop 3 (for example for a monitor / not shown) (adjustable and adjustable) is mounted. The height adjustment is done by known Devices that are not the subject of the invention. This first worktop 3 is provided on its underside with a handlebar 4, which is mounted on one end about a horizontal axis in a swivel joint 5 on the plate 3 and on the other hand carries the second worktop 6, for example for a keyboard (also not shown), and the like .zw. likewise pivotable about a horizontal shaft 7 and fixable in its inclination to the horizontal plane by known means (not shown), for example by clamping or fixing screws.

Zur Höhenver- und -einstellung des Lenkers 4 und damit der zweiten Arbeitsplatte 6 gegenüber der ersten Arbeitsplatte 3 ist hier eine Schraubspindel 8 vorgesehen, die an ihrem hinteren Ende ein Handrad 9 trägt und mit ihrem oberen Ende in einer Platte 10 der Arbeitsplatte 3 drehbar gelagert ist. Die Spindelmutter 11 ist im Lenker 4 geführt.For adjusting and adjusting the height of the handlebar 4 and thus the second worktop 6 relative to the first worktop 3, a screw spindle 8 is provided here, which carries a handwheel 9 at its rear end and is rotatably supported with its upper end in a plate 10 of the worktop 3 is. The spindle nut 11 is guided in the handlebar 4.

Diese Anordnung ermöglicht die stufenlose Verstelung der zweiten Arbeitsplatte 2 der Höhe nach gegener der ersten Arbeitsplatte 3, u.zw. durch Drehen des drades 9. In der obersten Stellung des Lenkers befin- 1ich die beiden Arbeitsplatten 3, 6 auf gleicher Hösätzlich kann nach Belieben die zweite Arbeitsplatihrer Neigung zur Horizontalebene eingestellt tgelegt werden.This arrangement enables the height of the second worktop 2 to be continuously adjusted in relation to the first worktop 3, etc. the drades 9. befin- by turning on the top position of the handlebar 1 I, the two work surfaces 3, 6 on the same Hösätzlich the second Arbeitsplatihrer inclination can be adjusted to the horizontal plane tgelegt libitum.

Anordnung nach den Fig. 3 und 4 entspricht im chen jener nach den Fig. l und 2, mit dem Unterdaß hier ein Einfußgestell mit Bodenplatte 12 en ist, die den Ständer 2 trägt, in dem die Artte 3 auch noch zusätzlic.h um eine Vertikalachar gelagert ist. Als Lenker ist hier ein U-Büorgesehen, dessen Steg 14 die Schwenklager 5 . und dessen Schenkel 15 durch eine Querstrebe nden sind, in deren Mittel die Schraubspindel 8 net ist.
i der abgeänderten Ausführung nach Fig. 5 sind einander parallele Lenker 17 vorgesehen, die torsionssteif durch ein Formrohr 18 verbunden sind; in der Querstrebe 16 ist, wie bei der Anordnung nach den Fig.3 und 4, die Schraubspindel 8 angeordnet.The arrangement according to FIGS. 3 and 4 corresponds in chen to that of FIGS. 1 and 2, with the fact that here is a one-legged frame with a base plate 12 which supports the stand 2, in which the type 3 is also an additional one Vertical achar is mounted. A U office is provided as the handlebar, the web 14 of which has the pivot bearing 5. and whose legs 15 are by a cross strut, in the middle of which the screw spindle 8 is net.
5 the mutually parallel link 17 are provided, the gate sionally rigid are connected by a molded tube 18; in the cross strut 16, as in the arrangement according to FIGS. 3 and 4, the screw spindle 8 is arranged.

Aus dem Vorstehenden ist erkenntlich, daß die Schwenkgelenke 5 für den Lenker 4, 13, 17 nicht unbedingt an der ersten Arbeitsplatte 3, sondern auch an deren Gestell 1 bzw. Ständer 2 angeordnet sein können.From the above it can be seen that the swivel joints 5 for the handlebars 4, 13, 17 may not necessarily be arranged on the first worktop 3, but also on its frame 1 or stand 2.

Im Rahmen dieser beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiele können nach Bedarf weitere Abänderungen vorgenommen werden, um sich je nach Bedarf den gewünschten Gegebenheiten anzupassen. Beispielsweise wird dazu folgendes angegeben:

  • Anstelle einer Schraubenspindel können gleichwertige Einrichtungen, z.B. eine Raststange, eine Zahnstange, eine Exzenterscheibe od.dgl. zur Höheneinstellung vorhanden sein.
Within the scope of these described exemplary embodiments, further changes can be made as required in order to adapt to the desired circumstances as required. For example, the following is specified:
  • Instead of a screw spindle, equivalent devices, for example a locking rod, a toothed rack, an eccentric disk or the like, can be used. be available for height adjustment.

Die zweite Arbeitsplatte kann zusätzlich auch um eine vertikale Achse drehbar gelagert sein; auch kann eine Feststellung für jede gewünschte entsprechende Stellung vorgesehen sein.The second worktop can also be rotatably supported about a vertical axis; a determination for each desired corresponding position can also be provided.

Der oder die Lenker 4 können gekröpft, also mit ihren freien unteren, die zweite Arbeitsplatte 6 tragenden Enden nach oben ragen; dies ermöglicht es, die zweite Arbeitsplatte 6 der Höhe nach auch über die erste Arbeitsplatte 3 hinaus anzuheben (Fig 6).The handlebar (s) 4 can be cranked, that is, with their free lower ends supporting the second worktop 6, project upwards; this makes it possible to raise the height of the second worktop 6 beyond the first worktop 3 (FIG. 6).

Um den horizontalen Abstand zwischen den Arbeitsplatten 3, 6 einstellen zu können, kann der bzw. die Lenker 4 längeneinstellbar ausgebildet sein, z.B. dadurch, daß sie aus teleskopartig ineinander verschiebbaren Teilen 4a, 4b bestehen, die in gewünschter Länge zueinander festlegbar sind (Fig. 7).In order to be able to adjust the horizontal distance between the worktops 3, 6, the handlebar (s) 4 can be adjustable in length, e.g. in that they consist of telescopically displaceable parts 4a, 4b which can be fixed to one another in the desired length (FIG. 7).

Es ist auch möglich, die zweite Arbeitsplatte 6 aus der in den Fig. l - 4 gezeichneten Gebrauchsstellung entfernbar anzuordnen; beispielsweise dadurch daß das Schwenklager 5 und die Platte 10 horizontal verschieblich an der Arbeitsplatte 3 gelagert sind, sodaß die Arbeitsplatte 6 unter die Arbeitsplatte 3 eingeschoben werden kann (Fig. 8), oder ferner dadurch, daß die vom Lenker 4 getragene Arbeitsplatte 6 um ihre Welle 7 unter die erste Arbeitsplatte 3 weggeklappt werden kann (Fig. 9). Die Klappachse könnte dabei auch durch das Schwenklager 5 gebildet sein; die Lenker 4 können aber auch, etwa in ihrer Mitte, eine solche Klappachse haben.It is also possible to arrange the second worktop 6 such that it can be removed from the position of use shown in FIGS. 1-4; for example, that the pivot bearing 5 and the plate 10 are horizontally displaceably mounted on the worktop 3, so that the worktop 6 can be inserted under the worktop 3 (Fig. 8), or further in that the worktop 6 carried by the handlebar 4 can be folded around its shaft 7 under the first worktop 3 (Fig. 9). The folding axis could also be formed by the pivot bearing 5; the handlebars 4 can also have such a folding axis, for example in the middle.

Mindestens zwei Lenker 4', 4", insbesondere in U-Form, können auch nach Art eines Parallelogrammlenkersystemes über- bzw. nebeneinander angeordnet sein, unter Vorsehung einer Einrichtung zum Einstellen der Höhenlage ihrer die zweite Arbeitsplatte 6 tragenden Enden zueinander, wie zweier Schraubspindeln 8, wodurch die Platte 6 in ihrer Neigung zur Horizontalebene einstellbar wird (Fig. 10, 11). Dabei könnte zusätzlich einer der beiden Lenker 4', 4" zusätzlich, wie in Fig. 7 gezeigt, längeneinstellbar ausgebildet sein.At least two links 4 ', 4 ", in particular in a U-shape, can also be arranged one above the other or next to one another in the manner of a parallelogram link system, provided a device for adjusting the height of their ends carrying the second worktop 6 to one another, such as two screw spindles 8 , whereby the inclination of the plate 6 to the horizontal plane can be adjusted (FIGS. 10, 11). In this case, one of the two links 4 ′, 4 ″ could additionally be designed to be adjustable in length, as shown in FIG. 7.

Um die Arbeitsplatte 6 über die Arbeitsplatte 3 der Höhe nach hinausheben zu können, kann der wie in den Fig. 3, 4 ausgebildete Lenker 13 in U-Form auch mit seinen Schenkeln 15 die Breite der Arbeitsplatte 3 überragen, wobei die Querstrebe 16 trogartig ausgebildet ist (Fig. 12, 13).In order to be able to raise the worktop 6 beyond the worktop 3 in height, the handlebar 13 in a U-shape, as shown in FIGS. 3, 4, can also protrude with its legs 15 over the width of the worktop 3, the cross strut 16 being trough-shaped is (Fig. 12, 13).

Eine andere Ausführung sieht zum selben Zwecke vor, die Schenkel 15 durch zueinander parallel angeordnete Schlitze 19 in der Arbeitsplatte 3 hindurchtreten zu lassen (Fig. 14, 15).Another embodiment provides for the same purpose to let the legs 15 pass through slots 19 arranged parallel to one another in the worktop 3 (FIGS. 14, 15).

Es ist erkenntlich, daß innerhalb der beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiele sich noch weitere Kombinationen mit vorteilhaften Ausgestaltungen erzielen lassen.It can be seen that even further combinations with advantageous configurations can be achieved within the exemplary embodiments described.
